I can confirm that my sources have revealed further information with regards both to the deal itself and to its timing.
These sources, who are absolutely impeccable and, in terms of proximity to the significant parties are precisely equidistant between the seller and the buyers, are happy to have the following information placed in the public domain, without prejudice.
The deal won't be done before the end of April.
Any questions on this matter will be dealt with in one month, by which time I can confirm that further details will be released.
If you had won the last Euro Millions,would you buy Charlton from RD and still have half your fortune left?
I wouldn’t touch the club with a bargepole. Winning the lottery would mean packing in work and securing a good life for current and future generations of your family. Buying a football club is the fastest way to destroy that, draining your winnings and sending you straight back to the coal face into the bargain.
Genuine question; why would anyone buy a football club? Particularly someone from Belgium who has zero emotional connection to it and who never watches a game? Why did Ellis Short buy Sunderland? You can make a case for the top 6 super clubs but why buy any of the clubs below them? Is there a genuine monetary reason like tax breaks or is it purely an ego thing like filling your 40-car garage with the latest Ferrari’s?
Didn't know about the article 3 thing, just posted what I know - rd will not b our owner next season - that is all - oh and if somebody could ask canters what he thinks I've changed my stance on that woouls be great - don't want to set him back after the progress he seems to be making by conversing direct
A takeover? I've posted all I know - rd will not be our owner next season - I don't do cryptic, that's for the others
Which is basically nothing. As someone else said give some detail, you never do!
None of the ITKs gives any 'detail'. Them's the rules.
If there is a done deal I hope it's not announced until our footballing fate is known.
Whilst all the players know things are happening in the background they seem to be performing well. Announcing new owners mid way through a play off campaign may serve to bring their insecurities to the surface and affect individual performance.
Arguably, it could work the other way and serve to motivate but any announcement in the next few days is a big risk to player's state of mind.
Edit: Deleted because isn't relevant to the thread topic.
If everyone did this we’d be only have 7 pages of this thread to read (and 688 of deleted messages) , instead pricks like me with nothing to add of any note ramble on about fuck all

I had a slightly unnecessary dig and that's not my way. Don't worry you didn't miss anything much!
Much more rambling nonsense to come from me from now on i'm afraid!
Wasn't sniping at all - I don't doubt you have a source but I don't buy that anyone other than RD could possibly be as infallible as you say this source is.
It's all a bit "my dad is bigger than your dad" schoolyard stuff to me and that's what undermines your credibility to an extent.
Also it was @Addickted who first broke the story about appendix 3 (unless i'm much mistaken and missed your earlier post) all you seemed to be doing at the time was arguing with others about how right you are about everything.
Happy to leave the debate there though it isn't positive or helpful to the thread, no offence intended was just trying to be constructive.
More know less than fuck all; and that is the group I am in.
What I have noted is that Doucher is the only one who has said all along that nothing will be announced until it is known which league we are in. Which in my book makes him the only one so far that has been right.
Let’s be honest here. Nobody even knows who the bidders are. Redhenry probably knows more about 1 bidder, but jack about any of the others. The scotch one has folded. Vague mention of a British one, and a constant Aussie one throughout - although the make up of that particular consortium changes monthly it would seem.
All that does seem to be true is that the club is up for sale and Uncle Tom Cobbly and all has done DD. Some two years ago and one last month.
Please post rumours and speculation as I like to think something is happening, but please can we keep the slagging of each other down to just one slag a page?
Thanks
A fair summary - a candidate to go on the bite size I reckon
This thread is actually a joke. Think a lot of people need to just leave it for a while. I rarely ever comment on this, but I have a glance every now and then.
Please, for your own sakes, stop believing every little bit of news people come on here with, they are RUMOURS. Not once have we ever seen any evidence of any of these claims. The number of times I've seen the term "trusted" sources being used when most stories have turned out to be complete bollocks.
Tell you what, i've had enough of all this bollox with people supposedly ITK - i am going to go to the one person who knows everything - i am going to go to see my mate, Roland, at next STVV game and ask him directly. In the times i have spoken to him he has become a good friend. A caring,appreciative person, portrayed totally in the wrong light on here. Me and him will sit down with a bottle of champagne, chew the fat,discuss the situation re new dancing techniques, and i am going to ask him the big question.

and one and a half pages listing the benefits of a pot noodle and a wank.
Is there any chance that the takeover failed and it was agreed not to reveal this information as the fan's reaction could harm a push for the play-offs.
